Drawing murals in the hallways

In March 2014, Messalonskee Middle School in Maine chose Middleworld for their community read. In cahoots with DDG Books in Farmington, every student was given a copy to read and we kicked off the event with a day of presentations and workshops. The program finished several weeks later with a school-wide Maya Festival and, of course, we had to go back to join in the fun. MMS generously shared many of their teaching materials and their schedule with us. You’ll find links to all you need to hold a Maya Day at your school in the side bar.
